Minetest Forums

Yes, i wrote a summary somewhere in the 'Ask your mapgen questions here' thread. I recommend reading the whole thread, lots of useful information. I see, i'll read them all, thanks! For MTGame and all mapgens other than Mapgen V6, the biome map is here https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=18&...

Code: Select all

plank, nothing, plank
nothing, plank, nothing

so you better change the BUCKET to this:

plank, nothing, plank
plank, nothing, plank
nothing, plank, nothing

Thanks! this is very useful!

Ah i see, it's the flame and lava color, right? I never played minecraft before sorry.. Is there any way we coud request fix?

Hello hume2, xdecor's wooden bowl recipe conflicted with this mod. I ended up going nuclear option by deleting the xdecor's bowl recipe. Is there another workaround? thanks!

V6 is a mapgen which I'd say is able to generate 'plausible' albeit not realistic worlds. The same to some extent applies to v7. I especially like caves in v6, with those walkable corridors, galleries, hidden passages, underground chambers and cloisters forking into intricate mazes. Exploring these...

Anyone know how to make the default ores have configurable generating level like more ores? Using ideas from jas's moreiron, i made a custom ore spawn mod. But it have to be edited manually.
Any mod that make the default ore spawn easily configurable will be great!

What's wrong with it? i think the colors are fine

minerman, I believe you can capture some animals with nets if they support it but for the most part, no, you cannot get spawn eggs in survival mode. Its a creative function unless you mod the mob to drop eggs or add them as items into the game in some other way.. This is magnificent idea, FreeGamer...

Yes. Actually, the heat and humidty need to be inside a given range. For v6, heat and humidity valuse are (roughly) between -1 and 1. This chart then applies: https://wiki.minetest.net/images/6/6a/Biomes_v6.png For other mapgens, heat and humidty are (roughly) between 0 and 100. The biomes are defi...

To be precise: Those settings actually scale the entire heat/humidity noise, not neccessarily the size of individual biomes. It would be more correct that these settings change how “fast” the biomes change. So the overall size of biomes tends to go down. There can still be some statistical outliers...

Hello tenplus1, Are NPC spawn eggs unobtainable in survival mode? Is there another way to spawn NPC and traders other than using creative mode?

Mapgen V7 can be configured to be very similar to Mapgen V6, the mapgens are extremely flexible. Smaller biomes are also possible. This is interesting, is there any documentation about what every noise in mgv7 do? For v6: Edit the settings “mgv6_np_biome” and “mgv6_np_humidity” and change the value...

Well, after trying all mapgens, i think i'll stay with valleys mapgen. Aside from it's high mountains and occasional vast plains, valleys in my opinion is the mapgen with the nearest comfy level with mgv6. It's river somehow produced tight open space like v6 mapgen

Mapgen V6 seems to me to be possibly good for younger children as everything is much smaller scale and ores are shallower. Agreed. Imho v7 biomes are beautiful. Perhaps theres a way to reduce v7 geographical scale using perlins. Like making the terrain much more simpler (like mgv6 small hills ) and...

In dungeon noise, the 'offset' is the average number of dungeons per mapchunk, the 'scale' is the typical variation (of the number of dungeons per mapchunk) either side of 'offset'. So for 2 dungeons per mapchunk everywhere: offset 2.0 scale 0.0 For a variation of 1-3 dungeons per mapchunk: offset ...

How to increase the number of available dungeon in a map?
There is dungeon noise, but i dont understand the use of every params (every noise is different)

Stunning textures, probably one of the best for minetest imho, alongside REFI and pixel perfection Oh right, almost forgot but I also added a first-draft style guide here . As a non-artist I've never written a proper art style guide before, and I'm also not sure if that's really what people are look...

Make a 2D mapgen with parameters. When you're sure that your 2D mapgen generates nice terrain for multiple parameters, you say that each parameter is another dimension. And that's it. Thats the hurdle, i'm afraid we basically needed a new mapgen if we want a basic v6 geographical features with cutt...

It is possible to transform the x/z coordinates by Perlin noise to different coordinates. I call this coordinate noise. After that, it can happen that features from both v6 and v7 appear in a single world. The coordinate noise changes somewhere slowly and somewhere rapidly. When the coordinate nois...

I love your mod! It has a Harvest moon or stardew valley esque feel to it.
I wonder if you could add more hostiles to it, like monsters. Pumpkin head, Santa Killer, or Lycans are just too rare.

Same here. I still start new worlds with v6 mapgen due to its terrain unless I need to test something with a diffrent mapgen. The small-scaledness of v6 interacts well with the rather short view range. After all all those glorious mountains are invisible most of the time unless I walk there. Howeve...

Anyone here felt that Mapgen v6 kinda much comfier to settle dan explore than other mapgens? Based on my experience, mapgen v6 geography was somehow felt much more 'compact' and stuffed. Mapgen v7, in my experience was felt too big in scale, which in turn somehow felt more tiring to explore. Yes, i ...
